"Error: invalid chart URL format" with helm chart from local disk

[berti-peitz]

When loading & upgrading the chart this way:

chart = await client.get_chart(chart_ref='path/to/helm/chart')
revision = await client.install_or_upgrade_release(
        'release_name',
        chart,
        values,
        namespace='namespace'
    )

I get
pyhelm3.errors.Error: Error: invalid chart URL format: 'path\to\helm\chart'

Problem are the apostrophes in the final shell_formatted_command-string (see command.py, line 185), which results from the conversion chart_ref-string --> WindowsPath --> str.

When adding
shell_formatted_command = shell_formatted_command.replace('\'', '')
after line 183 in command.py everything works as expected.

Maybe you can add this fix (or a similar one) to the library !?

I'm using the library in 0.4.0 version and works well.

The only change is that I don't pass values to the function call. What does the variable "value" contain?

I am also experiencing this issue as well when providing a local path for my Helm Chart on Windows.

The output below is a printout before and after I've added @berti-peitz workaround:

helm show chart 'C:\Users\redacted\Documents\redhat\redacted'

helm show chart C:\Users\redacted\Documents\redhat\redacted
